폭력의 식민주의적 기원

Abstract

For hundreds of thousands of Europeans who once lived in Algeria, the idealization of the past is reproduced in melancholic ‘nostalgeria’. But the tragedy begins with the fact that only the OAS and its successors have dishonestly and consistently instrumentalized it. Not content to throw an entire community into chaos, the extremists in ‘French Algeria’ subsequently sought to monopolize the community’s memory. In this paper, I would like to examine the roots, history, and contemporary aftermath of the Secret Armed Organisation that intentionally triggered the amazing vortex of ‘violence’ in France and Algeria since early 1961. We want to track down the deviations of officers with false patriotic ideals, fascist fighters, and those who have turned into assassins who wanted to “block history”. And I want to look at how and why the hot memories of this period, dotted with killer madness, still work in a stealthy way underground in French society.
